Cozy Versions Save

After almost two years, a new version of Cozy is finally here! This release brings an updated user interface along with numerous bug fixes and improved performance.

The user interface has been ported to GTK4 and Libadwaita. Thus, Cozy benefits from the new style sheet, automatic dark mode, and utilizes the latest and greatest UI elements throughout the application. Many thanks to Benedek Dévényi (@rdbende) and @grahamvh!
